1) Check to make sure that your com ports are enabled in your setup.
Compaq-[F10] When blinking cursor jumps to top right corner of screen
OR
Compaq-[F10] when logo screen is displayed
2) If you have another computer available, test your modem to make sure that it is working.
3) Here is a shareware program that will test your serial ports and modem and check for conflicts
